MT. Futile voiced the sentiments of all present. MT.

 Professor Edward R. Sill, who died in Cleveland, Ohio, February 27, was con tributor to frst-class magazine literature and modest, unobtrusive, scholarly gentle man. He was Connecticut man, born in Windsor, Conn. His parents early removed to Ohio. He graduated at Yale, class of 'e1, and leaves many friends in New Haven who will regret his loss. He took nearly all the first prizes for literary work during his col lege course, concluding with the DeForest gold medal. During his sophomore year he was one of four students who broke into the college chapel the night after the execution of John Brown and draped the chapel in mourning. One of his assistants was young Spear, since deceased, son of Rev. Dr. Spear of Brooklyn. After graduation he studied at Harvard for while and then went to California with his classmate and in innate friend, the brilliant Sextus Shearer, who died soon afterward. He was for sever al years professor of English literature in the University of California, but resigned sever al years since, preferring an eastern climate. He was the poet of his class at Yale, and as the New York Evening Post says, "had more thoroughly vindicated his claim to the title | than any man, unless it was the late Robert | Weeks, who had left Yale since MT.

THEAmER1oAN BOARD.

Its Prudential Committee is Ad- dressed a Comm u mi c stfo on by the Cen- tral As sOciatiOn of New Haven-Re- grets at the Committee's Action Re- garding MT. Morse-AnOther Prob. lem for the Board 10 Consider.
 At the recent meeting of the New Haven Central association of Congregational minis ters the following action was taken req garding the rejection of MT. Morse for mis- sionary service:
 To the prudential committee of the A. B. c.
 F. M:
 Dear Brethren-The Central association of New Haven has heard with regret that MT; R. 0. Morse, S student of Yale Theologlcai seminary who was unanimously approved by us and licensed to preach the gospel, has been judged by you to be theologically unht to enter the foreign missionary service ot the Congregational churches under the appoint lnent of the American board. According to the established usage of our churches license from an association of Congregational ministers is regarded ss sufficient creden- tial of theological soundness for candidates for the ministry until they are called to ap- pear before the ordaining coun- cils. The action of the pruden- tial committee in declining to appoint a Iicentiate of this association upon theological grounds simply would seem to ln- dicate that the usual license of Congrega- tional association is not deemed by them to be of sufficient evidence of theological soundness to warrant them in proceeding to appoint a candidate for ordination to the missionary work of the churches subject to the advice of council. This action of the prudential committee does not end, there fore, in the failure of missionary applicant to receive appointment, but It raises the further question, which in our judgment should command serious attention, whether the ordinary course of procedure in the cer- tifcation of ministerial standing at the set clement of pastors at home is not to be deemed advisable in the selection of Congregational missionaries, and most conducive to the harmony and the greatest practical efficiency of the board.
 As this association has by it's licensure made itself responsible to the churches for the theological standing of MT. Morse, we would therefore respectfully request the pru- dential committee to reconsider It's action Tn declining to appoint Mir. Morse subject to the advice of council; and we would commend him again to your favorable consideration, as we have already by our icensure com mended him to all our churches as a preach CT of the gospel,
 In behalf of the association.
